February Update from the OLSC

Connacht Interpro Bus

The OLSC has organised a same-day return bus from Dublin to the Sportsground in Galway for Leinster's match against Connacht on Friday, February 29 at a subsidised cost of 15 euro per person.

The Bus will depart Dublin from outside the Ulster Bank Group Centre on Georges Quay at 2pm sharp and will leave the Sportground at 10pm. There will be toilet facilities on the bus.

Those intending to stay in Galway over night can still avail of the bus but the charge remains the same.

Places are limited and can be reserved by paying in advance through PayPal using the OLSC email address: LeinsterSupportersClub@LeinsterRugby.ie or by providing credit card details to the same address and you can then pay cash on the day.

Jackman!

The Official Leinster Supporters Club is delighted to announce that the new Jackman! T-shirt has arrived. More than half of the T-shirts have been sold already though our new pre-ordering service but there are plenty still available which will go on sale on Saturday before and after the match in the Guinness Supporters Bar in the RDS.

BOD T Shirt

The Club is delighted to announce that the long awaited Brian O'Driscoll T-shirt will be launched in time for the match against Munster in April. We will be offering the pre-ordering service again so make sure you get in early as we are anticipating a high demand.

For the first time the Club will also be producing this T-shirt in children's sizes.

Advance notice of the opening of the pre-ordering service will be given thorough the Leinster Lowdown and http://www.leinsterrugby.ie/. Trust us when we say it will be worth the wait!

Ladies night

This Saturday night (Feb 16) is Ladies Night and the OLSC is hoping to raise a tidy sum for Action Breast Cancer while showing everyone a good time. The pre-match reception, kindly sponsored by Jolie, begins at 6pm in the Clyde Room in the RDS. This part of the evening is open to those ticket holders who registered in advance but the post-match reception in the same venue is open to all who pay the 5 euro entry fee at the door.

Guests at the pre-match reception will receive NIVEA gift bags and a glass or two of bubbly while being entertained by live music. Post-match the fun will continue with more music, finger food, a raffle, spot prizes and special guests, including members of the Leinster team who will be dropping in.

Thanks to Magners the 'best dressed lady' is set to win a trip for two to the Magners League match against Edinburgh in April. There will also be a prize for the most imaginative Leinster supporter's attire.

The OLSC would like to thank our sponsors Jolie, Nivea and Magners for making this event possible. All proceeds will go to Action Breast Cancer so please come and join us after the match and feel free to donate generously.

Llanelli away trip

The Supporters Club is also delighted to announce that our recent partnership with Aer Arann was a huge success. The specially priced flight deal for OLSC members travelling to Cardiff for Leinster's match against Llanelli at the end of March sold out in days. We hope that this arrangement will be repeated before the end of the season.

Coming soon

The Club has been busy putting together a few things for the remainder of the season and we are happy to announce that there will be a player interview in the Supporter's Bar after the match again Glasgow on Good Friday.

We also hope to have details of a weekend event with a family emphasis very soon. Watch this space for more information!

As ever, keep an eye on the website, the Leinster Lowdown, Friday's Evening Herald and match day programmes for further updates on the activities of your club.
